I love this cashback business!

Got my £20 from Canon now for my printer/scanner thing.

Just need to wait for the Nikon one now.

Raked a decent amount from my Capital One card as well over its introductory period.

Phew, its hot

Scorchio

Must be the hottest day so far.

Driving past the airport to home the car readout showed 25 degrees.

Let's hope we haven't peaked too soon.

Iranian food in Bournemouth, it's all the rage

Hungry!

This is good isn't it?

Congratulations to Nigel on moving into his new home at the top of our road.
